plot analysis

Plot analysis involves examining the sequence of events in a story to understand its structure, themes, and character development. It typically breaks down the plot into key elements: exposition (introduction), rising action (conflicts build), climax (turning point), falling action (tension decreases), and resolution (conclusion). This analysis helps identify how the events contribute to the overall meaning of the story and how they affect the characters and audience. By interpreting these components, one can gain insights into the narrative's deeper messages and emotional impact.
